In 2004, portion of a pottery vessel containing fragments of cremated bone was found during a programme of unlicensed monitoring of topsoil-stripping at the Wyeth Medica Ireland facility at Littleconnell. The feature was archaeologically excavated under licence (Licence no. 04E1555 www.excavations.ie) with the assistance of a conservator and appears to represent the remains of a Bronze Age cremation burial that was contained within a small upright pottery vessel. The vessel was initially removed from the site in a stabilised earthen block and later excavated in controlled laboratory conditions. (Excavations 2004, 2007, No. 847, p.203)
